St George Bank has renewed its five-year, AU$100 million contract with Optus for its communications services including voice, data and mobile.
Optus is the latest Australian company to launch an investigation into why banner adverts for its services have appeared on a controversial Web site that allows visitors to download potentially illegal content.
St George has been leaning on suppliers and re-evaluating its technology projects as it attempts to cut costs.
St George has formally appointed its current acting IT head, Paul Newham, to take the CIO reins full time just as the company gears up for a merger with Westpac and the ensuing IT hangover.
St George Bank has upgraded its data network to support the voice and video demands on its fledgling customer relationship management project.
Banner adverts for Dell and Optus were appearing on the Pirate Bay Web site earlier this week -- until ZDNet Australia published a story revealing the fact.
